Grab the given opportunities

Free Thinker *



Dear Honorables, Babus, NGOs (not yet blacklisted), innocent citizens it is my innocuous suggestion to learn and tap the opportunities offered by the GOI schemes, projects, programs, announcements etc. (Courtesy PIB, Rashtrapatiji's speech in the Central Hall).

Let us learn to use the National resources prudently without missing the given opportunities; State and local resources are woefully limited.

Pradhan Mantri Garib Kalyan Yojana-is it still lingering even after 8 months ? Just check and please do the needful. One-Nation-One-Ration Card -it is better to get one at the earliest. Garib Kalyan Rojgar Abhiyan-why only for six States, it may be extended to other States too, we also have migrant- returnees.

SVANidhi scheme - our vendors and hawkers should be made aware of it and take the benefit. Ujjwala scheme-get the gas cylinders for cooking, put pressure on your local leaders. Take advantage of Rashtriya Poshan Abhiyaan, Fit India Movement and Khelo India Abhiyan-pony polo and Sagol Kangjei may also be included in Khelo India.

Pradhan Mantri Jan Arogya Yojana - make the card and get free treatment up to 5 lakh. Pradhan Mantri Bhartiya Janaushadhi Yojana - get the medicines at subsidized rates at Jan Aushadhi Kendras across the country.

Pradhan Mantri Kisan Samman Nidhi and Pradhan Mantri Fasal Bima Yojana - let our small and marginal farmers get the benefits. The Agriculture infrastructure Fund, Kisan rail, The Animal Husbandry Infrastructure Development Fund, Kisan Credit Card (extended to pastoral and fishing communities), Pradhan Mantri Matsya Sampada Yojana etc, are for the betterment of farmers.

Regarding the benefits of the 3 Farm Laws, namely - The Farmers Produce Trade and Commerce (Protection and Facilitation) Bill, The Farmers (Empowerment and Protection) Agreement on Price Assurance and Farm Services Bill and The Essential Commodities (Amendment) Bill, let the Apex Court and experts committee decide. We lay-men don't understand the nitty-gritty of these highly beneficial laws (economically and politically too).

Pradhan Mantri Kusum Yojana (Urjadata) - through it you may get the solar pumps, find the channel. Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana - this is high time for our poor people to get their pucca houses by 2022; we must pursue vigorously.

SVAMITVA scheme for providing loans to the villagers on the basis of their property and economic activities will certainly change the rural economic landscape; but proper implementation of the program is the need of the hour. Small entrepreneurs, people associated with cottage industries and small farmers would be especially benefited under this scheme.

Pradhan Mantri Gram Sadak Yojana - in the third phase 1.25 lakh km roads have been constructed connecting village settlements with schools, hospitals, markets etc. This will further hasten the development of the Nation.

The rural areas and hills can't be left behind in the process of development Pradhan Mantri e-Vidya, Diksha and One-Nation-one-dig-ital-platform for school education is a futuristic approach; In the long run we will be far ahead of other countries in digitized education. National Education Policy is another milestone for proving more freedom of choices to our students.

'Jibondhara' and 'Artha Brahmaputra' will certainly transform Brahmaputra and Barak rivers as streams of development. These days North East is relatively calm, law and order is better now-so the development activities are on. In the last few years, the infrastructure development in the region is quite noteworthy. Now the priority must be given to employment generation.

'Our Covid vaccines are going to change the international relations faster than what we think, GOI is moving very fast and supplying them to many countries; in the next few months the entire world will be behind us believing in our leadership. Just see the change. Let our vaccines reach every corner of the world and we always believe in the idea of' Vasudhaiva Kutumbakkam'.

Pradhan Mantri Suraksha Bima Yojana (accident insurance by paying 1 Rupee per month), Pradhan Mantri Jeevan Jyoti Bima Yojana (support to the family in case of death of the bread earner), Pradhan Mantri Shram Yogi Maan-dhan Yojana-pension for domestic workers, drivers, cobblers and press-people (THOSE WHO IRON CLOTHES) and farm workers .

These are simply wonderful-must be implemented properly and promptly. It is our duty to ensure our simple-innocent common people get these facilities and benefits.

Many are in the name of Pradhan Mantri-PM is over burdened-please have mercy. And if something goes wrong who will be responsible?
